President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday his intention to nominate Todd Blanche as the new Attorney General of the United States, replacing Pam Bondi. Blanche, who previously served as Trump's personal attorney and interim Attorney General, has been active in advancing the president's agenda. Trump plans to formally submit the nomination on Thursday, following Bondi's dismissal in April. Blanche has faced criticism for his aggressive investigations against Trump's opponents and for proposing a $1.8 billion fund to compensate allies for alleged political persecution.
